Abstract
Abstract In this paper, by considering the experts' vague or fuzzy understanding of the nature of the parameters in the problem-formulation process, multiobjective 0–1 programming problems involving fuzzy numbers are formulated. Using the a-level sets of fuzzy numbers, the corresponding nonfuzzy α-programming problem is introduced. The fuzzy goals of the decision maker (DM) for the objective functions are quantified by eliciting the corresponding linear membership functions. Through the introduction of an extended Pareto optimality concept, if the DM specifies the degree α and the reference membership values, the corresponding extended Pareto optimal solution can be obtained by solving the augmented minimax problems through genetic algorithms with double strings. Then an interactive fuzzy satisficing method for deriving a satisficing solution for the DM efficiently from an extended Pareto optimal solution set is presented. An illustrative numerical example is provided to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed method.
